THERE IS A CRISIS IN THE MAKING AND MOST AMERICANS ARE UNPREPARED By Eva Mor, PhD In 2030 there will be 71 million Americans over the age of 65, and 60% of them will need some sort of health care assistance, according to the US Department of Health and Human Services. In a recent survey conducted by AARP, among Americans 45 and older, only 15% knew the cost of nursing home care, and only 27% knew the cost of assisted living. In another survey, 55% of the same age group mistakenly believed that Medicare covers long-term nursing home stays. It does not. Medicare will cover 100 days of rehabilitative services, after at least 3 days of hospital stay for a condition from which the patient is projected to recover. With such a lack of information, it is not surprising that only 6% of Americans have adequate long-term care insurance. Within the next 10 years, 77 million Americans will be 55 years and older, and although 34 million baby boomers are family caregivers to some extent, 7 million of them are living 400+ miles from their aging parents (AARP). To be able to provide the best care and quality of life for our parents, and plan our own retirement, we need to...more

American Poet Johnie Parker says 'Afzal Shauq An Extraordinary Poet' "Afzal Shauq An Extraordinary Poet"Though I have just recently found the amazing work of Afzal Shauq, I am already a big fan. His words are put together in a way that just flow through you, leaving their mark on your heart and your mind. I admire him for his determination in trying to spread love. In the world we live in, all the hate that surrounds us, he is one of the few people who has kept the hope of love alive. Afzal Shauq writes poems of truth, of real life. He speaks of what he has seen and discovered from his travels and experiences. He speaks of a great dream he has that consists of peace and love in humanity. He is an inspiration to many and rightfully so. Afzul Shauq's poem "I Am Not Alone" is one that really spoke to me:I am not alone, Angel of deathhaunts me ever following...worries consumefire flamesburning in my heart. I am not alone...Suspicious lifeshadowsalways are lurking trying to avoid myselfrunning to and fro.I am not alone...Person possessedseeking longing for refuge seeking a placenone see even death's angel.So what to do....In dreams I...more
